I'm sure most of you believe that the dinosaurs were killed off by a meteor, right? Well I'm here to tell you that the Birmingham Zoo, in fact, killed the dinosaurs. They killed everything else.

I went there yesterday & saw this.

The Rhino. He probably died after I left.

The Elephant exhibit is right beside the Rhino but the Elephants died last year.

This Hippo has gotta be dead. They can only hold their breath for about 5-6 minutes. It never came up to breath. & that's not enough water for a Hippo.

The next exhibit I went in was called the "Social Animals". What does social mean? It means they like being around other animals, right. Well these here were all by themselves. They look miserable.

That was pretty much it, the rest of the exhibits like the orangutans were closed, they probably died.

Tell me this isn't a house cat.

2 years ago there were about 5 or 6 lions. Today.

A few years ago there were a few Tigers too. Today.

Chickens? Yep. Don't know why.

This pissed me off the most. The American Bald Eagle. Sitting in what appears to be maybe a 10 by 10 net cage. All they can do is sit on the small tree all day.
That's the American symbol. It shouldn't be kept like this.

Add that to the long list of things that sucks about Alabama.

The Birmingham Zoo does blow, I'll have to admit. That's just one of the things around here that Nick is going to straighten out.
